Description
Jim Rotondi has quietly made his way to the very top tier of jazz trumpeters, and this CD proves it. Known primarily for his lengthy association with tenorman Eric Alexander & organ dynamo Charles Earland, this album is a tour de force. Jim is joined by a complete "first call" band consisting of Mulgrew Miller, Joe Locke, Peter Washington & Joe Farnsworth. With a tip of the hat to the trumpet/vibes concept of Woody Shaw & Bobby Hutcherson, this CD is that jazz rarity: A "straight-ahead" recording that is nonetheless completely forward looking.
